The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

"It's time to arrest all these corrupt officials and cut them all down!" Hearing the excitement, General Zhao slapped the table with a slap, and this chapter almost split the table.

Li Wen was still a little worried that they were going to pay the restaurant a table, and thought that you, General, would be merciful...

"It's a pity that I wasn't here in the capital at that time." Zhao Zhuo wished that others were here in the capital at that time, and he could take care of those corrupt officials in the household department with his own hands.If it weren't for these corrupt officials, they wouldn't be unable to pay their food and salaries at the border, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers would starve, all because of these damned corrupt officials!

In fact, in the officialdom, it is not only the officials of the Ministry of Households who are so corrupt?If the power departments from the Six Ministries to the General Administration Department of the Five Temples really want to investigate one by one, I am afraid that few officials will be able to escape. They know these things in their hearts.Zhao Zhuo patted Li Wen on the shoulder, and said with admiration in his eyes, "My boy, the court should have a few more officials like you."

No wonder this kid is able to get the emperor's attention at such a young age, he is indeed a good boy.

Being able to resist these temptations in the officialdom is not something ordinary people can do, not to mention that this kid can have such concentration at a young age.

"Dacheng has many students and talented people. Wen is just an insignificant one among many people." Li Wen said modestly.In the short time with General Zhao, he has grasped the character and temper of this general, and his attitude when talking to this general is neither humble nor overbearing. What should be said and how to say it is in his heart. There is a measure.

Compared to someone like Zhao Xiangyi, who couldn't beat a fart with three sticks, General Zhao was much more talkative.

Why don't you learn from your father, can you talk more?Li Wen looked at the man beside him.

What?Zhao Xiangyi didn't know why, so he asked the boy with his eyes.

The eyes of the two met for a moment, then Li Wen averted his eyes and continued talking to General Zhao.He didn't deliberately try to please this general, but he respected him very much in his heart.

If it weren't for these soldiers guarding the border, the Hu people would have invaded long ago, how could they live a stable life today.Their stability is obtained by the soldiers who sacrificed their reunion with their relatives, and even sacrificed their lives. They should all respect these soldiers at the border.

There are many topics that the two can talk about, ranging from government affairs to military affairs.

When it came to the emperor's order to disarm the army, Zhao Zhuo couldn't understand the emperor's order to disarm the army.

Li Wen expressed his personal opinion. After all, he was the one who raised the idea of ​​disarmament at the beginning, "...we can cut out some unsuitable soldiers in the army, and arrange these people to work in various places. Continuing to serve the court is just a different way."

It is very expensive for the imperial court to feed an army of tens of thousands of people. It is true that some veterans and remnants are not suitable to stay in the army. They can select these people and arrange them to work in places. They don’t have to stay. in the army.When these people come out, they can continue to work for the court. As long as they can work, they can generate labor value. This is also a personal value. It is no problem to support themselves or even a family.

"The imperial court is not trying to reduce investment in the army. On the contrary, the imperial court wants to increase investment in the military." Li Wen told General Zhao all the decrees promulgated by the emperor one by one, and analyzed them one by one. General listen.

Li Wen suspected that Zhao Xiangyi had told his father about these things, but he certainly didn't explain them clearly.

Based on his understanding of Zhao Xiangyi, it would be great if this person could explain one thing clearly, how could he explain it thoroughly to General Zhao!These questions can only be supplemented and explained by him.

"Well, what you said is indeed reasonable." Zhao Zhuo nodded with deep thought on his face.

Seeing General Zhao's epiphany expression, Li Wen knew he understood, and then he talked about the elite plan.Disarmament is to free up excess resources to train better soldiers, Li Wen continued, "...meaning we can select some of the better soldiers, give them special training, and train them into a team of soldiers. An elite army, the soldiers here can be worth ten."

"This idea is not bad." Zhao Zhuo stroked his bare chin, and shaved off his beard when he came back.

General Zhao was obviously very interested in this matter, and the two talked for a long time about the reform of the military department.What Li Wen knew was mostly just on paper. When it came to military knowledge, he had to count General Zhao, and he had to ask General Zhao for some things he didn't understand.

Today Zhao Xiangyi came to accompany him. Seeing that his own father did not make things difficult for Li Wen, and had a good conversation with Li Wen, the worry in his heart disappeared.

It's almost time to meet, today he also made an appointment with other old friends, if he doesn't go there, others will have to wait, Zhao Zhuo got up and prepared to leave, "Today I also invited friends, let's talk about this today Well, if you are free some other day, I will invite you to my house again

- Poly. "

Seeing that General Zhao was about to leave, Li Wen got up to send General Zhao out, and said respectfully, "General Zhao, please go slowly." "Haha, you are a good boy." Zhao Zhuo raised his hand and patted Li He asked over his shoulder and glanced at his son, don't think he doesn't know why this kid is here.Isn't it because he is afraid that he will ask Li how this kid is doing?

Could it be that he is an unreasonable person who is a great general?

Zhao Zhuo glared at his own son, and said to Li Wen, "Why are you still calling me a general? You can call me in the future... Uncle, I'll be like an extra son."

Abo is another name for father, which is actually equivalent to calling father or father.This "Abo" is equivalent to General Zhao's approval of Li Wen, and his approval of the relationship between the eldest son and Li Wen.

In fact, if I had to talk about it, Zhao Zhuo felt that the Zhao family had taken advantage of it.Last night, Madam explained clearly the matter between the eldest son and Li Wen. If he had to force the eldest son to separate from Li Wen, it would definitely hurt the relationship between father and son. Marrying a wife and being able to find a companion are still one thing.

But Li Wen was separated from his son, and all the women in the capital could be chosen by the other party.Li Wen is no worse than his eldest son, he was admitted to the number one scholar at a young age, entered the court as an official, and has done so well in the officialdom. After sitting in this position, he will be reused by the emperor. It will only be a matter of time before he becomes a minister. matter.

Zhao Zhuo entered the military camp with his father since he was a child, and the military camp was full of men, and there were many incidents where men became brothers with men. The feeling of supporting each other on the battlefield and walking down together is far better than being with a man. It is much more secure for a strange woman to get married.

Therefore, regarding the matter between his eldest son and Li Wen, Zhao Zhuo didn't feel that men and men should not be together. Rather than letting his son die alone, as a father, he hoped that his son would have someone who would accompany him for a lifetime.

Before meeting Li Wen, Zhao Zhuo had a good impression of this young junior in his heart, and after meeting him, Zhao Zhuo recognized Li Wen.This kid is a smart and smart person. With Li Wen around, I believe no one can bully his son, and on the contrary, he will give them a lot of help.

Seeing that Li Wen didn't respond for a long time, General Zhao asked displeasedly, "Why, don't you want to call me Uncle?"

"No, it's not." Li Wen was taken aback for a moment before he realized the meaning of the "Abbe".He didn't expect General Zhao to do such a thing suddenly before he left. Of course, he was very willing to call him "Abo".

Li Wen made a bow with both hands, and respectfully called "Abo" to General Zhao.

"Haha, okay, okay, I like your straightforward temperament. Let's have a good drink when we come back to the general's mansion." Zhao Zhuo laughed loudly, patted Li Wen's shoulder twice, then withdrew his hand, He went out and took his men away.

Standing behind, Li Wen looked at the departing General Zhao. Seeing that he had gone far away, he turned his gaze away and looked at the man beside him.The two returned to the box just now, and Li Wen sat down on the chair, looked up at the man standing in front of him, and asked, "Your father, did you agree to my business with you?"

"Uh huh, of course it is, I agreed." Zhao Xiangyi saw the boy sitting here in a daze, bent down, and leaned closer to stare into the boy's eyes. The two looked at each other, and there was a smile in his eyes. Asked, "Are you silly with joy?"

"You're so stupid!" Li Wen said angrily that Zhao Xiangyi's face was covered with a slap.

This unlucky boy, will he still have a good chat!

"Haha..." Zhao Xiangyi couldn't help laughing, hugged him in his arms, kissed the boy several times, and said with a smile, "I'm so happy."

"Silly."

Li Wen also had a little smile on his face, he was actually quite happy to be recognized by General Zhao and agreed to his relationship with Zhao Xiangyi.After all, this person is Zhao Xiangyi's father. Of course, he hopes to get the approval and consent of General Zhao, and he doesn't want Zhao Xiangyi to be caught in the middle.

But now it is Zhao Xiangyi's parents who have agreed to their matter, leaving his family alone.At the very beginning, when he thought of confessing his relationship with Zhao Xiangyi to his parents one day, he felt a little more apprehensive and uneasy in his heart at that time, fearing that his parents would be disappointed in him.
